Neoclassical Art Deco Oak Sideboard by Roger Berthier

This oak sideboard, designed by Roger Berthier, presents a language that is both restrained and assertive, where neoclassical influence structures a vocabulary still imbued with Art Deco sensibilities. The façade, composed of three perfectly balanced doors, is animated by large twisted wrought iron handles, introducing a strong graphic contrast and material presence. The base, formed by two sculpted supports connected by a twisted stretcher, introduces an almost architectural register, evoking a stylized column base. Both functional and decorative, this element anchors the piece with strength while giving it a distinctive identity. The oak, with its warm tones and deep patina, highlights the quality of craftsmanship and the clarity of the volumes. Made in France in the 1940s, this sideboard reflects a transitional moment where classical rigor meets a more modern sensibility. Literature: Mobilier and Decoration, no. 3, April 1950.
